Many Needs of Children and Schools Fulfilled Through the CLEF Good News Fund

GOOD NEWS FUND DONATIONS

Made possible by people like you — enable schools to upgrade their educational materials, set up remedial programs for new students, provide scholarships to needy students and purchase equipment such as desks and computers.

More than 50% of donations are used to make capital improvements in the school buildings, including security systems, furnace/boiler repairs, new windows and other renovations. Lutheran schools tend to be older with much deferred maintenance. While most schools can support current operations with tuition and donations, extraordinary expenses like roof repairs are difficult to pay for.

Educational Equipment

Educational Programs

The CLEF Good News Fund enables schools to provide pre-school programs; remedial reading and math programs for new students transferring from other schools; programs for children with disabilities; advanced learning programs for gifted children; and art and music programs.

Scholarships
